Charalambides

Charalambides founders Tom & Christina Carter dedicate themselves to a vision of iconoclastic music as transformative force. Touching on the outer limits of acid folk, psych rock, and improvisation, their sound remains uniquely personal & consistent. Formed in Houston in 1991, Charalambides has produced dozens of releases on labels like Siltbreeze, Time-Lag, Kranky, & their own imprint, Wholly Other. The duo will be touring in Europe in support of their forthcoming release, Proper, coming out with Drawing Room Records.

Review Quotes:

'Charalambides are among the most beautiful and mysterious groups to have emerged from the American desert. ...They have created a glowing template of humanist/mystical improvisation that has kneaded brain muscles from here to Kokomo.' — The Wire

'[M]usically, through two decades of working together, they've created a world apart. Though they've played with many like-minded artists and floated through a number of 'scenes' ... their work feels wholly self-contained, never seeming to refer to anything but itself.' — Pitchfork
